I'm not exactly sure how Lemmy works here, but are pictrs images considered "remote," or are they copied between instances? AFAIK, each instance has its own pictrs service, but I'm not sure if that's sent along with the post content when federating messages.
But if lemmy can interact with other instances without storing any non-text data, then perhaps the problem is solved.
